A man who listed a treehouse on Airbnb as a joke was stunned after it received a booking.

Jason Kneen built the house in his garden at his Wiltshire home and it has now been booked by a family of four as a weekend break.

Kneen said: ''I thought the booking was a joke at first but the fact someone's going to do it is pretty incredible.''

The ''unique stay'' had been listed on the site for £500 a night, as he ''didn't want anyone'' to actually book it.

Kneen explained: ''The price was only really picked because we weren't expecting anybody to actually do it.

''I thought it would be interesting to put it up there with some photos and last weekend, we suddenly got an inquiry through.

''I think it's amazing and insane, I'm not sure I would pay that much for my kids to stay in one but the fact that someone's going to do it is pretty incredible.''
